"Josh Waitzkin's The Art of Learning is a testimonial to the timeless principle of 'do less and accomplish more.' Highly recommended."- Deepak Chopra

"I strongly recommend it for anyone who lives in a world of competition, whether it’s sports or business or anywhere else.”- Mark Messier, 6-Time Stanley Cup Champion

Josh Waitzkin knows what it means to be at the top of his game.

A public figure since winning his first National Chess Championship at the age of nine, Waitzkin was catapulted into a media whirlwind as a teenager when his father's book Searching for Bobby Fischer was made into a major motion picture. After dominating the scholastic chess world for ten years, Waitzkin expanded his horizons, taking on the martial art Tai Chi Chuan and ultimately earning the title of World Champion.

How was he able to reach the pinnacle of two disciplines that on the surface seem so different? "I've come to realize that what I am best at is not Tai Chi, and it is not chess," he says. "What I am best at is the art of learning."

In his riveting book, The Art of Learning, Waitzkin shares the principles of learning and performance that have propelled him to the top -- twice.

Using narrative that combines heart-stopping martial arts wars and tense chess face-offs, Waitzkin reveals the inner workings of his everyday method, from systematically triggering intuitive breakthroughs, to honing techniques into states of remarkable potency, to mastering the art of performance psychology.The Art of Learning encapsulates an extraordinary competitor's life lessons in a page-turning narrative.
